Pew Research Section Surveys - Iran a Growing Danger, Bush Gaining on Spy Issue, Part 5

These statistics deal with the public's concern about using force in Iraq, about what course of action to take next, and about the outcome of the U.S. effort to establish a stable democratic government. Last month the opinion about using force was almost evenly divided, with a bit more of the percentage leaning towards its disapproval. With respect to keeping the U.S. troops in Iraq, the opinion was equally split. However, most of the surveyed persons agreed that the U.S.'s effort to establish a stable democracy in Iraq will succeed. This month, the persons agreed in all three questions, approving the use of force, the continued stationing of troops in Iraq, and the success of a stable democratic government in Iraq.
